New Program for Evaluating Payment Patterns Electronic Reports (PEPPERs) through CY 2016 are available for Home Health Agencies (HHAs) and Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHPs). PEPPERs are distributed by TMF® Health Quality Institute under contract with CMS. These reports summarize provider-specific data statistics for Medicare services that may be at risk for improper payments. Providers can use the data to support internal auditing and monitoring activities.
